About The Role
We're looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join our R&D team as a founding engineer for a brand-new product initiative at the site, focusing on the Identity, Non-Human Identity and AI Agents Security space. You will work closely with product and engineering leadership to architect, build, and scale our unique product offering.

- Build data pipelines that analyze, classify, correlate, and evaluate non-human identity tokens and permissions at enterprise scale.
- Design extensible, plug-and-play architectures optimized for high integration velocity, making it seamless and effortless to onboard new SaaS platforms (e.g., GitHub, Slack, Salesforce).
- Take end-to-end technical accountability, from early system design trade-offs to ensuring high availability, performance, and fault tolerance in production.
- Act as a technical multiplier and mentor, conducting design reviews, setting engineering standards, and elevating the capabilities of the team.
- Drive continuous innovation across our software stack to solve complex, emerging security challenges.
- Work in a high-velocity, agile environment that balances rapid execution with architectural excellence.
Requirements
- 9+ years of experience in software engineering with a deep focus on backend architectures and distributed systems.
- Proven track record of designing, building, and operating production-grade, cloud-native backend systems.
- Experience building cloud-native products on AWS, Azure, or GCP.
- Strong experience building distributed architectures using messaging and streaming frameworks (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, Amazon SQS, Celery).
- Strong database modeling and query experience with SQL Databases.
Experience designing and implementing RESTful APIs and gRPC services.
- Hands-on experience with asynchronous programming models (e.g., asyncio, Goroutines) and production programming languages (e.g., Python, Go).
- Strong system design judgment with a track record of driving cross-team technical alignment and mentoring engineers.
- Experience in the Cybersecurity domain, specifically Identity & Access Management (IAM), Secret Management, or Non-Human Identity Security- advantage.
- B.Sc. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related technical field (or relevant military experience) - advantage.
